Abstract

Embodiments provide resource scheduling methods and apparatus that reduce transmission resource overhead in resource scheduling. The method can be applied to a wireless local area network, where a next generation protocol followed by the wireless local area network predefines locations of resource units potentially allocated from a to-be-assigned frequency domain resource. The method includes: generating, by a sending end, resource scheduling information, where the resource scheduling information includes a bit sequence to indicate an actual allocation of a resource unit(s) from the to-be-assigned frequency domain resource, and at least some bits in the bit sequence to indicate whether one or more of the resource unit locations potentially allocated for the to-be-assigned frequency domain resource are the actually allocated resource units.
